[PATCH v8 1/3] cache.h: Introduce a generic "xdg_config_home_for(…)" function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Current implementation of `xdg_config_home(filename)` returns
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/$filename`, with the `git` subdirectory inserted
between the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable and the parameter.

This patch introduces a `xdg_config_home_for(subdir, filename)` function
which is more generic. It only concatenates "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME", or
"$HOME/.config" if the former isn’t defined, with the parameters,
without adding `git` in between.

`xdg_config_home(filename)` is now implemented by calling
`xdg_config_home_for("git", filename)` but this new generic function can
be used to compute the configuration directory of other programs.
